Petty Christmas

The Monday after Christmas, my mom's side of the family got together to celebrate. We had family come into town from Ohio, D.C., California, and other places within N.C. All 6 Petty kids (my mom's brothers and sisters) were able to be together! The Williard's made their mouth-watering homemade pizzas (which taste even better in their pizza oven at their house!) which went along well with the other dips, veggies, cheeses, and desserts made by Kathryn, mom, and Marie.

After eating and having some cocktails, we preceded to play "dirty santa". This can become quite the game with this group; and we weren't let down this year either! I think in the end, everyone went home happy!

Just when we thought things were winding down, a game of cards got started. We ended up having 2 tables of card games going on at the same time! Phillip and I called it a night around midnight and headed back to mom and dad's. I'm not sure how much longer the games lasted. Either way, it was wonderful to be around family!

Happy Anniversary to Kyle and Marie! 29 wonderful years together! Thanks for spending your special day with us!
